Before “Blair Witch” became a phenomenon, there was a little-seen, lackluster but innovative found footage film called “The Last Broadcast”.
This week, Chaos and Carnage take you through the very first found footage horror movie, The Last Broadcast, from 1998 (a very good year, according to Carnage).
The story follows a Dateline-esque format where experts dissect and discuss the footage of an episode of the local access show ‘Fact or Fiction?’ where the cast and crew went into the Pine Barrens of New Jersey to search for the Jersey Devil. Only their guide returns alive, and he is arrested for the murder of the others. But some people don’t believe he had the motive to carry out such an attack.
This was the first movie shot wholly digitally. They didn’t even want to send it to the like, one theater it released in, on film, so the movie was beamed into the theater via Satellite!
It’s been over a month since we last recorded an episode, so we, um, forgot to rate it (oops!) in the episode. Carnage gives it a 3.789/10, and Chaos gives it a 5/10.
Tune in to hear your hosts talk about bucket lists, real folklore, gutchecks, a game of whodunnit, and things going really REALLY awry.

259 – Down A Dark Hall
This week, Carnage takes us to a Gothic mansion where a school for troubled but gifted young women is harboring dark secrets! Down A Dark Hall is a film adaptation of the Lois Duncan novel of the same name which follows the story of Kit, a teen girl whose parents are at their wits end due to her constant acting out. Her psychologist has seemingly found an answer to their problems in the form of the Blackmoor boarding school run by Madame Durant, who promises to draw out and develop Kit's latent talent. But her methods and motives are sinister indeed, and Kit soon finds that the beautiful halls are more oppressive than inspiring. She becomes a piano virtuoso practically overnight, though she and the other girls at the school suffer from missing time, obsessive devotion to their creative pursuits, losing touch with reality, voices that speak only to them, and ghastly apparitions that roam the halls at night. Will Kit be able to regain control of her life before it's too late, and how will she confront the dark forces conspiring to tear them all apart?!
